Bug#425703: linux-image-2.6.18-4-xen-686: xen kernel oopses on removing the netloop module
Package: linux-image-2.6.18-4-xen-686
Version: 2.6.18.dfsg.1-12
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system
On a running xen machine, I tried the command:
rmmod netloop.
This is an obvious issue that I should not do that, however this module should not be unloaded.
Result:
kernel panic and restart of machine.
